Care Bears are back!


It's nostalgia time! This summer, the studios are launching remakes of the Love Bug, Bewitched, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The greeting card and toy industry is on the bandwagon as well, with the re-release of the Care Bears. They're back!

Doubt it? Then check out the Care Bear's own Web site.

I was overseas when the first explosion happened in the early 1980s, so I missed the whole trend the first time around. But no such luck this time. As startling as this might sound, I recognize all 14 of them ("no, honey, that's no Love-a-lot because she has two hearts on her tummy").

Both kids are big fans, so they were naturally eager to pose by Johanna's Care Bear birthday cake. Katie actually has stuffed versions of both Tenderheart and Cheer Bear, so when she saw the cake (and these pictures), she yelled "that's me!" (rather than "they're mine!").
